Thanks Eric!  I'm glad to be an active part of TSRA and I'm very excited
about the future for the club and its members.  It's hard to believe
that we went from 15 people meeting in Arkansas last year to go riding
for a couple of days to a fully-established club with members from all
over the world!!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Eric, Lisa and Jack for
the tremendous amount of work they've done to formally establish TSRA as
a legal entity in such a short period of time.  In addition, the
framework that they created provides a solid foundation yet is flexible
enough to allow for the growth of TSRA.

I was hoping to be named Field Marshall General President-for-Life, but
Jack said that title wasn't in the by-laws.  ;-)  Again, it's my
pleasure to serve and I'm very enthusiastic about TSRA.

As a Director, my main role will be that of facilitator and I will do
what I can to get things done within the framework established by the
Board of Directors.  My secondary role is to make Jack crazy.  ;-)   As
with the other Directors, feel free to e-mail me (us) at any time with
questions, concerns or ideas.

My philosophy is the same as Eric's:  the club belongs to the members
and it will be as good as the membership wants it to be.  From some of
the notes we've been receiving from folks inquiring about the Western
Rallye and from the people I met at the Riding the Ridge Rallye, I can
say that the TSRA has a great membership!  Great people make for a great
club!

Right on, thanks for staying on as Eastern Rallye Coordinator!!  Eric
(and Lisa, Jack, Dennis, et al) did a fantastic job and I have no doubt
that if he says next year's event will be bigger and better... it will!!

Respectfully,
